Ingredients:  
4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into ¼ -½ inch sticks
2 eggs, separated
3/4 c. beer, room temperature
2 T. vegetable oil
3/4 c. flour
1½ T. salt
1 quart vegetable oil for frying

Directions:
Directions:
Place potatoes in a medium-size bowl of cold water.

Preheat the oil in a large pot or electric skillet to 325 degrees F. Par-fry the potatoes until they are not quite done, about 5-10 minutes. Remove to cool.

To prepare batter, place flour in a mixing bowl and add egg yolks, salt, oil, and beer. Stir batter until thoroughly mixed. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow it to rest in the fridge for at least 2 hours or as long as 24 - the longer the better, to a point.

Just before using batter, stir it well again. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry; gently fold egg whites into batter. Dip the fish in the batter. Put them into 360ºF oil until golden brown.

Now put the fries back in the grease to finish cooking to a crisp and golden brown.
